ERNESTO

Wine made from Grignolino grapes with a long fermentation on the skins and 2 years of aging in wood casks of 500l. The aging includes also at least a year in bottle. In 1800 this wine was at its glory as a big wine for fine meals in noble families. Ernesto is the great-grandfather: he was producing Grignolino in the previous century, we dedicated this wine to him.
